It has great realistic weight and is well made. Now he carries it with him everywhere.

Seth L.Seth L.: The media could not be loaded. Smooth pivot area, pocket clip is not overly stiff, the ring is comfortable and smooth. The handle is also smooth without much texture to grip. The only texture it offers is ridges from the liner and the wave like feature. Edges are flat without a lot of rounding. IMO, this item is going to be best suited for practicing deployment, practicing techniques without a partner or with a compliant buddy. This can still badly damage someone with some effort.
The pocket clip came on the side that allows for left handed deployment to the blade on the pinky side of your hand or thumb side for right handed. This is perfect for use for right handed shooters using a blade in their left. If you prefer a different carry you can switch it to the other side of the grip scales. The pivot screw is a gripe I have because it tends to loosen frequently. Great option for the price.

David G.: Firstly, I need to say that this training knife was SHARP out of the box. The "edge" was flat and safe, but the corners of that flat edge were 90° degree sharp corners and I was literally able to cut paper with the corners. I had to file down the corners all the way around the entire knife in order to make it relatively safe for training purposes. It is also important to know that the little wave nub at the top of the knife is still absolutely a dangerous weapon if you spin the karambit and hit somebody with it. Use common sense, please.
That being said, the only other issue I had was that the belt clip was installed on the left hand side, and unfortunately I don't own extremely tiny Torx wrenches, so it's just gonna have to be in my left pocket for training.
Other than those two things, this trainer is very, very nice and CERTAINLY worth the buy. My instructor uses the $100+ name brand trainer and it's functionally identical to this one. It's also extremely comfortable in the hand, and the ring is the appropriate size.
I gave 4 stars for sturdiness just because there is a slight back-and-forth rattle (none side to side) with the blade. I honestly spend so...

ch-home: It does feel a little bulky in my hand, and because the blade is thick, it is heavy. But, that makes it a decent training device. Kind of like wax-on-wax-off. If you don't get that, watch the movie. And don't cheap out and watch the SD version because it's a dollar less than the HD version - On Prime :)
For my hand - medium glove size - the finger ring is a bit far away and large, but I make due. It's just to play with.
Peace.

M O: I'm not sure that the OG 579 trainer is worth $129 so this would be a good enough analogue.
My main problem with this knife is that the clip is set up for left pocket carry and even with a star wrench (that I have for my OG 599) the screws will not screw into the other side of the knife.
Half of the reason of getting this knife is to safely practice with a trainer knife in the pocket and hand I'll primarily use a live blade, and if I can't move the clip for a right pocket carry, it's pretty much useless... or half as useful as it should be. Hence the 3 stars.
